My Hobby in July

So this month has been the first full month of 6th Edition being out. I managed 12 games of 6th Edition, bringing my total so far to 13, which isnt too bad at all.

Overall this month I played 20 games of 40k, which I feel is pretty good for a month for me. Ok so maybe 20 games in a month is amazing for me rather than good...

6th Edition Rulebook Value

This is more of an amusement than anything else. I have seen a fair number of people complaining about the cost of the 6th Ed rulebook. For me I paid £45+£8 for the Psychic Cards.

So in total thats £53 spent on the new edition. With a total of 13 games played (one from last month).

As of the end of July I have spent £4.08  per game of 6th Edition.

I will try and keep this updated as I go so you can see the actual value for money for my 6th Ed rulebook.

not sure if it's just a coincidence or not, but it seems the 5th edition games where very close in final score,while 6th edition results seem swing wildly both ways.

Yeah in my experience 6th Edition actually seems less likely to have draws and the games have all been one sided when it comes right down to the VP counts.

Although on the flip side of that I tend to use armies that are a bit of a glass cannon so they either do really well or really badly.
